How to Permanently Disable the System Tray on Windows 7 / Vista / XP

Windows System Tray is a very useful application for most us, rarely do we find it intrusive. But some do find it really irritating and useless. Here’s how a simple registry hack can remove your system tray. I can’t really imagine doing the same to my system.

Open Regedit by using Start Menu search or just Run Box and now navigate to the key below.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer
Now if you don’t find the key already all you got to do is create one. Right click on your right pane and create a new 32-bit DWORD value and put the values below:
How to Permanently Disable the System Tray on Windows 7 / Vista / XP


* Name: NoTrayItemsDisplay
* Value: 1
After creating this key, close Regedit and logoff for this hack to take affect. 
"Note that this is hack only hides the system tray, your startup programs will still load. You’ll still need to disable your applications manually.If you run into any problems after this hack simple delete this key from registry and your system should be back to normal."

Facebook: How to hide friends from Public Access

Facebook has been in dire straits over its Privacy features. Nevertheless, after a long list of hate mails and criticism, they seem to have come to their senses and have offered privacy options completely at our disposal.

Facebook: How To Hide Friends From Public Access

Facebook’s previous policy which enabled your friend’s list to be available for the public didn’t go down well with most of the users. So it backtracked and now you have the option of showing the number of friends or no friends at all.
Here is how you do it.

1. Login to your Facebook account and click on ‘Profile’ at the top.

2. On the left, scroll down to your friends box and click the pencil image on the top right hand side of the box.
Facebook: How To Hide Friends From Public Access
3. Uncheck the box that says ‘Show Friend list to everyone’. Now your friends will not be available for public access.

Note that when I say public access, I mean people who are not in your Facebook friends list. Also, it does not block the applications you have already allowed.

How to stop as ent email in Gmail

Gmail is I really believe one of the best email service providers out there. Its clean, sophisticated and has lots of features that is I think mostly unknown to most of the daily users. And one of them is Undoing your sent email.
How To Stop A Sent Email In Gmail
Gmail Labs have loads of features that other email services don’t offer. One of the m is undoing your sent email.
The Undo Send option in Gmail is very useful if you have sent a email without an attachment or sent it to a wrong person by mistake.
This feature by default is unchecked. You can enable it. Here’s how:

1. Login to your Gmail account and goto the Settings options.
2. Click the Labs tab.

How To Stop A Sent Email In Gmail
3. Enable the Undo Send option and click Save Changes.
Now, here’s the catch. You can cancel the sending only after seconds of hitting the send button. After you get the message “Your message has been sent”, you can’t do anything about it.
